Tumblr media
Okay, so I told myself I wasn't gonna dwell on this and I really am trying not to, but I figure this is a good opportunity for people who are newer to this site (hi reddit!) and newer to transformative works (hi again reddit!) to see what's absolutely not appropriate behavior in a fandom space.
And this is it. Rest below the line, for brief suicidal ideation mention (in the far past I am fine!!!!)
So, I'm mostly glad that I'm the one who got this anon, and not someone else. I'm fairly emotionally stable, I'm an adult, I have a full time job, I don't rely on tumblr to feel like I'm worth something. I've got other things in my life going on, and the reason that I write isn't for clout or for comments, but because a. it genuinely pleases me to do so because it's MY hobby, and b. I have a few close friends who enjoy my writing and if they like it, then I'm happy. Everyone else is amazing! The comments, the fanart, the kudos, the likes, all of it! You are all amazing! But at the end of the day, writing is, again, MY HOBBY. I don't do it because I want to make a living off of it! It doesn't matter to me, ultimately, if I get better or not!
But if you say shit like this to someone younger? Less stable? Someone having a hard time? Someone whose sense of validation comes ONLY from online spaces like tumblr? You're going to hurt someone. When I was in the worst depressive swing of my life, when I was 15-16, a comment like this would have been enough to make me want to kill myself. Not because the comment is true! But because my brain would've PERCEIVED it as true. I am very, very lucky that I had the chance to put in the work to get where I am today. Other people aren't as lucky. There are other people who would put far, far more stock in a message like this.
I've already blocked this anon (it was an empty tumblr, so like...you made a tumblr just to send a mean message???), but if this person somehow sees this post, I guess my question is, what were you hoping to achieve here? What was your goal? Did you want me to...stop writing? Because you continuing to read someone's writing past what you consider their "good period" is on you, bud. Did you want me to feel bad? Why? What does making a person feel bad do for you? Does it make you feel better? And if it makes YOU feel better to make another person feel bad, a person who is putting their work out on the internet for free for others to enjoy with no expectation of reciprocity...consider, anon, do you maybe need someone to talk to? Are you okay? How are YOU feeling about YOURself?

Could you please go into details as to how touch is Jonathan's love language? 👀💙
+ Same anon - I didn't want to imply anything lewd, physical touch as a love language firs him very well (that and snark as his other love language) and I'd love to see you elaborate on it!
Hehe of course I can. Thanks for asking!
We’ve got some great examples of Jonathan using physical touch as either an expression of admiration, companionship, or affection.
Take the first time we see Jonathan and Evy interact in The Mummy (1999) - when she’s feeling down, the first thing he does is console her and he does this through physical touch (also words of affirmation, which I believe is his second love language, though you’re spot-on with snarkiness.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wow, who made these gifs? They’re so good. [x]
He even holds onto Evy’s arm when they visit the prison where Rick is being held. Yes, it can be that he’s afraid of being there (especially since he stole from Rick) but it’s also a way for him to protect his sister; being able to tug her away if there’s any danger and also in case she feels afraid as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then, when he first interacts with Rick outside the prison, he gives him a warm handshake and pats him on the chest as if they’re already good friends. They hardly know anything about each other at this point, but Jonathan makes the effort to be as friendly as possible (that’s also probably due to his British charm but I digress.) This interaction also acts as “I apologize about before but I promise I’m pretty decent once you get to know me” without saying the words directly.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now, what about in a romantic sense? Take the first time we see him in The Mummy Returns (2001) - he’s walking with Sheila down the hallway, an arm wrapped around her side and holding her close to him. Yeah, he’s feeling great right now but the option to simply walk beside her is right there and he opts for sticking as close to her as possible instead.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I’m going to take this brief moment to say that he’s a huge gentleman since this is most likely after ~things have gone down~ and he’s walking her out, either to her car or to drive her back to her place (as discreetly as possible.) I just think that’s neat. He keeps up a conversation with her and keeps up the physical touch as well.
Of course, we have all the sweet moments with him and Alex; a hand on the shoulder, wrapped up in a hug, leading the other by the arm, hand holding, etc. Their relationship is so adorable. [x]
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, he grabs a hold of people in an effort to protect them. Even if he can’t do it very well, he certainly tries (I’d screencap those moments but it’s always mid-sprint so the picture comes out super blurry.)
He also gains comfort through physical touch. Since he’s been through a lot of high stakes, a friendly pat on the back or arm, or even getting pulled away from danger (Rick yeets him so much, it’s so funny) gives him the assurance that 1. he’s not alone & 2. there’s someone there to help him.
I think Jonathan is one of those people who think that when words fail, actions speak louder. So, he shows his love for people (whether platonic or romantic) through physical touch; something that says that he cares without uttering the words himself.
That’s just my opinion, though!

yeah i have a lot of posts were the only reblogs are me and it does make me feel like why do i bother sharing if nobody cares
Tumblr media
I feel you, my friend. I think many of us, if not ALL of us here, do. Not sure if being told "you're not alone" makes it any better, but a ton of us suffer from the same painful disappointments.
Keep reblogging your stuff! Be your own advocate on Tumblr. The world needs the opportunity to fall in love with it. I believe all our content needs is to find the right audience before it can take off. It's a little bit like a soulmate search. As wise friends tell me regularly, "it just needs some time."
If nothing else, lack of notes in your post doesn't mean lack of care for YOU. I certainly care about you and I hope I can run into your posts sometime!

The countries in echoverse are just a bit confusing to me because I know there are some parallels to real countries but for the life of me I cannot figure out/remember most of them
We know a few! United States of America - United States of Columbia
Sonora - Mexico
The Great North - Canada
/// Sates
The Magnolia State - Mississippi
Pueblo - Arizona
----------
This isn’t all of them, I’m pretty sure we know The Neverlands from Glory Hounds but I can’t find it right now, and there’s probably a few states we know of. South America, Africa, and Australia also have names but I would have to go through game files (and I’m very lazy!) and except for Australia, we don’t know which countries the other names refer to/it’s the region or not.

Anonymous asks are going to be turned off for the time being. I’m sorry to those of you who feel more comfortable interacting that way, but my DMs are open if you ever want to chat.

To the anon that sent me the fic prompt about the first time Kit sees Jade’s mark, you’re the second person to request a fic like this, very similar idea’s so I’ll probably end up combining your idea with the other anon’s idea!
I really like the idea of writing about it, so I will get to it! And with your prompt being similar to another anon’s prompt, you might see your fic sooner rather than later.

I just done the zoom thing no one knows im gay my mom would kill me if she new how come y’all are so happy do you got a gf
Good Morning Anon,
I think it’s brave of you to take part in yesterday’s Zoom - and that you messaged me. I was wondering who you are. It was okay to just kind of sit quietly in a corner of our zoom.
Things will get better, I promise. I’m 47 now and life has been good for quite a while. I have a partner (she/her) of fourteen years. I wouldn’t have thought that possible for such a long time.
One can be gay (queer, +) and happy in life.
I come from a very messed up home as a kid. I tried my best to stay as safe as possible while I lived there. And then one day I left. It was scary, tiring, and complicated, but it was also a first step towards happiness and independence. With time (lots of time!), the power my family had over me vanished. I still remember, but I’m no longer ruled by it.
And I wish for you that the power your mum has over you right now will also lessen with time. And that you’ll be able to live your life however you want to. You deserve to be happy the way you are.
Take care & stay safe. Write, if you feel like you need someone to listen.

I mean if writing for the joy of creating something isn't good enough, you might as well just move on yeah
Very good point, Anon! Yes, this is probably the number one reason why many writers and artists pack up and just slip away to inactivity. Lack of joy in writing is usually just temporary, from being burnt out or tired or having a rough day. But when the struggle becomes too much because the joy writing itself sparks is gone, then yes. Moving on is probably advisable. I wouldn't assume I am immune to that reality!
Thank you for the reminder to do a "check" on myself.
